The Routledge Handbook of Language Contact is a comprehensive and up-to-date resource that provides a comprehensive overview of the current state of research in contact linguistics. Spanning 26 chapters, this handbook presents contact linguistics as a distinct field of inquiry, exploring a wide range of approaches and perspectives. It delves into experimental and observational methods, formal theories, social and cognitive factors that influence language contact situations, the emergence of new languages and speech varieties, and the impact of contact linguistics on urban speech and linguistic landscapes.
Contributions from esteemed scholars from around the world, both established and emerging, make up the four sections of this text. The first section focuses on methodological and theoretical approaches, while the second section examines the factors that shape language contact. The third section explores the impact of language contact on individuals, and the fourth section examines language change, repertoires, and formation.
This handbook is an invaluable resource for anyone interested in language contact, particularly in regions such as Anatolia, Eastern Polynesia, the Balkans, Asia, Melanesia, North America, and West Africa. It offers a thorough exploration of the complexities and dynamics of language contact, shedding light on the processes and outcomes that arise in diverse linguistic contexts. Whether you are a researcher, student, or simply passionate about languages, this handbook will provide you with a deep understanding of the field and its significance in our understanding of the world.
